Editor: The BitNami JRubyStack is an installer that greatly simplifies the installation of jRuby and its runtime dependencies. It includes ready-to-run versions of JRuby, Rails, Java, Tomcat, GlassFish gem, MySQL and Subversion.

JRuby is a 100% Java implementation of the Ruby programming language. It is Ruby for the JVM. JRuby provides a complete set of core builtin classes and syntax for the Ruby language, as well as most of the Ruby Standard Libraries.

With JRubyStack you can:
-Develop your JRuby on Rails application using Java from Ruby.
-Launch your application with the GlassFish server thanks to the GlassFish gem.
-Make a .war file out of your application in 3 simple steps (see Quick Start Guide for Details).
-Deploy it to the bundled Tomcat.
-Commit and Checkout your code with the subversion client.
